Hello,

These look like Russian tanker pants, at least to me.

thanx all, so it looks soviet......

The above two pants are not LW pants - this is nothing more than a collector's myth I am afraid. These quilted sets were issued to the Heer as well, without any doubt.

Hello,
they had quite the same pants in the O.T. as well.
Cheers, Pierre

Correct,

these OT pants featured a quilted rayon interior and a brown-coloured coton exterior. And, these are hard to come by as well.

Hello Vincent,

Could you post some photos of Heer soldiers with this kind of quilted clothing? Thanks,

Hello,

I'll root through my binders to see if I can come up with some images that are not already featured in my book. For obvious reasons, I would rather not post the images that are in the book, which is yet to be published. If memory serves, there are a few images though that come to mind. I will try and upload these by the evening.

Best,

Vincent

[Vincent S.]

Here are a few I quickly scanned.

Best Regards,

Last one for now, as I am in a rush.

Thanks for those pics Vincent. I had hardly seen 3 or 4 of these quilted uniforms, and always worn by LW men.
